Forward to the basket

When he saw Mike Brown's implicitly smug expression, Rivers understood that he was being calculated by others, but you really can't find a way to find out about this matter.

The contest between the teams, the battle between the two coaches, is full of deceit. Whoever tricks the other into the trap is a skill, and those who fall into the trap can only admit that they are unlucky.

No way, this is all a competition at the intellectual level. The head coach cannot play, but tactics and personnel are where they can play.

Rivers' targeted defensive strategy at home, as well as the practice of hitting the inside line in offense, can be regarded as one of them, but he played more openly.

Mike Brown's insidious tricks are a bit deceitful, but there is nothing wrong with it. It is a confrontation based on each person's ability. Whoever is tricked, don't blame others.

During the intermission, Mike Brown assigned such a task to Varejao. He just didn't expect that Varejao would do it so beautifully.

Less than a minute into the third quarter, that guy had already forced Chen Feng to get two fouls in a row, especially the first time, when his nose hit Chen Feng's elbow head-on.

You really have to say that Varejao's trick was ruthless enough. Where his nose was so fragile, he dared to bump his elbow. The scene of nosebleeds also surprised Mike Brown.

But it really worked. Chen Feng got a foul out of nowhere, and before the opponent could understand, Varejao put Chen Feng under the basket while defending.

Continuously allowing the opponent's most lethal inside weapon to get fouled, this is the result Mike Brown needs most, and Varejao achieved it with a face full of nosebleeds and an exaggerated posture on his back.

You can't say he's mean or something. There are many people who play this move in the NBA. Just like Stockton's little trick, many people don't like it, but no one can deny that it is very practical.

When Varejao first entered the NBA, his skills were really rough, he had no offensive skills, and his defense had no more characteristics except life-threatening.

Such players are not uncommon in the nba and outside the nba, but Varejao can stand in the nba and get a good contract, that is, because he is smarter when defending.

Players from South America, like their football counterparts, have always liked to play tricks at certain times, especially when there is physical contact, they like to find a little trick.

Varejao has completely inherited this fine tradition. When this guy is in a deadlock when defending, he will use some extraordinary means.

Diving, that guy is definitely an expert, but today the Celtics played too smoothly in the interior, and Varejao was also confused by this kind of bombing.

Originally, in the first quarter, Gooden was fighting against Chen Feng. When Gooden went down, Varejao ran into Chen Feng without even coming up.

At that time, most of them were Chen Feng and Perkins switching positions, and then directly hitting Ilgauskas hard, which made Varejao only entangled with Perkins.

And that time when Chen Feng dragged the little emperor to the ground and attacked fiercely, he even crushed Varejao under him.

This directly confused Varejao, he had never met such a fierce guy, and he didn't react for a while.

But during the halftime break, Mike Brown was a bit out of control, he could only treat a dead horse as a living horse doctor, and threw Varejao in front of Chen Feng.

Mike Brown initially expected Varejao to cause some trouble for Chen Feng, and didn't expect much, but the Brazilian gave him the biggest surprise.

With cunning actions, decisive confidence, and more importantly, realistic acting skills, this guy is completely an acting school in the process of committing two fouls, and he is definitely at the level of an actor.

Now Rivers is indeed scratching his head a little bit. His most vicious card in the paint was overshadowed by the opponent's actor.

Two fouls in one minute, such a bad situation made Rivers annoyed, what was he afraid of, why did he come, he just said Chen Feng not to foul too much, but this guy has already committed four times.

The third quarter had just started, and now Rivers had no choice but to replace Chen Feng from the field. He didn't want this kid to miss most of the fourth quarter after a while.

Although Chen Feng himself wanted to stay on the court, Rivers didn't dare to take the risk. If there was another fifth foul later, he would not be able to play the entire fourth quarter.

Regardless of whether Chen Feng was happy or not, Rivers had already made the decision to make a substitution. Jefferson took over and played, and the Celtics' tactics were still to fight the opponent.

But soon Rivers became aware of Mike Brown's plan. As soon as Chen Feng got off the court, the Little Emperor began to try various methods to get under the basket.

Although Pierce followed the little emperor all the time, he couldn't hold back the guys like Gooden and Marshall who took turns to pull the outside line to serve the little emperor as a pick-and-roll.

That posture was to use all means to complete the little emperor's breakthrough. As long as Pierce could block him uncomfortable, even if it was a foul, these guys would not hesitate.

With such a group of cannon fodder paving the way for the little emperor, even if Pierce wanted to stop Chen Feng, he had no choice but to rely on the defense of his teammates to block the little emperor's footsteps.

But no matter whether it was Jefferson or Perkins, they were indeed far less flexible than Chen Feng in terms of the footsteps of defending inside. This directly led to the little emperor rushing to the inside.

The weak lead was narrowed in an instant, and then overtook, although Pierce scored once each in the mid-range and beyond the three-point line.

But within 5 minutes, the little emperor used his crazy breakthrough to score 9 consecutive points in the Celtics' hinterland, including [-] of [-] shots, and then got [-] free throw opportunities.

Perkins and Ratliff each received a foul, and Jefferson, who came off the bench, was called once, which made Rivers almost stomp his feet and curse on the sidelines.

Ratliff and Perkins' defensive fouls are fine. After all, the footsteps are slow, and the little emperor attacks facing the basket. When dodging and moving, he always catches the defenders by surprise.

But Jefferson's foul really made Rivers a little impatient, and he almost didn't let go of his voice and yelled at the referee.

"Damn it! Another flop! Can this be any more fake? What are those idiot-like referees looking at! That guy is simply deceiving everyone!"

It's no wonder that Rivers was so angry. He had no choice but to stand on the sidelines, watching Varejao slyly stick to Jefferson's body, and then fell down exaggeratedly.

It was originally a perfect scoring opportunity for Jefferson after he got rid of it, but Varejao quietly touched Jefferson's flank to help defend, and after sticking to the defense, he fell to the ground on his back.

The state of the fall this time was even more direct than when he smashed to death with Chen Feng. This guy fell straight on the floor, and the sound of flesh touching the floor made people feel ashamed.

When the referee's whistle blew, Jefferson stared at the Brazilian who was pretending to be in pain on the floor with his eyes wide open. That appearance almost raised his fist.

Both Thibodeau and Rivers protested to the referee, but Jefferson raised his arm at the last moment of the offense, and Varejao's timing was a bit too perfect, and he fell almost at the same time.

From the eyes of others, most people would think that Jefferson raised his arm when he turned and attacked, and then Varejao was unlucky and knocked down.

But Jefferson knew that he hadn't done anything, and the Brazilian's expression was too exaggerated, as if he had been skinned by someone else.

If it wasn't for Thibodeau's tugging, Chen Feng would have rushed into the arena to teach the Brazilian a lesson. Just like that, Chen Feng continued to curse at the sidelines.

"I'll go! You are still an acting school! Kao, then why don't you go to Hollywood!"

It was enough for Chen Feng to squat on the bench to make this kid depressed, but now Chen Feng really understood that his sister's accident was completely calculated by others.

When Thibodeau said just now, Chen Feng was still a little hesitant. Now that he looked at it this way, he didn't run away. The Brazilian kid just saw the opportunity and waited for you to come up and foul.

This made Chen Feng quite upset, usually he was the one who schemed against others, but in the end, if he didn't pay attention, he was fooled by the Brazilian's various flops.

Chen Feng really wanted to grab Mike Brown by the neck and ask, Nima, wouldn't you think of other ways to harm me?Do you have to find such a product?

The head coach's protest and Jefferson's dissatisfaction failed to allow the referee to change the penalty and made an offensive foul. This not only slowed down the Celtics' pursuit of points, but also got them into trouble.

The three most important insiders were trapped for fouls. In the last two or three minutes of the third quarter, Rivers even had to rely on a combination of Ogwakandi and Ratliff to carry it for a while.

The result can be imagined. At the end of the third quarter, the little emperor had already scored 43 points, plus 5 rebounds, 3 assists and 1 block.

With such tough statistics, the little emperor clenched his fists and waved it in the air when he left the field. His expression was as if he had chopped off his opponent's head on the battlefield.

At 81:75, the Cavaliers led by six points and ended the confrontation in the third quarter. Ever since Chen Feng left the field, these guys have been firmly controlling the rhythm of the game.

Whether it's inside impact or outside scoring, it's always easier for the Cavaliers to score because of the involvement of the little emperor.

Although Pierce and Szczerbiak also maintained consistent accuracy in their shots, they suffered consecutive fouls inside, which made them lose the vigor of the first quarter.

The Celtics were really in trouble when Perkins, Jefferson and Feng Chen all came off the bench.

Now there is only the last twelve minutes left for them to come back. Regardless of the outcome, there will be a conclusion in the last quarter.

Rivers' team will never be willing to lose at home like this, but there is not much time left for them to reverse the game.

As for Chen Feng, this kid never took his eyes off the Brazilian with the headband.

His eyes seemed to be on fire, and his two big hands were clenched loudly.

Can I still have your good fruit to eat?Make your mother's dream!
